Laos Free


In the July newsletter of Legacies of War, there was an embedded link to a recently released animated short produced by Cory Sheldon. Just over 9 minutes in length, the story of the bombing of Laos by the United States during the Vietnam war and the consequences of the 80 million bombs still remaining in the country today is presented. Part narrative and part info-graphic, the film tells the story of what happened, what life is like today and possibilities for the future.
